it's genuinely fascinating to me that "you cannot facilitate a genocide against a people and still expect their vote" is too advanced for some analysts to understand.

to spin off Tyler Burge's example: you get to tell your doctor whether or not your knee hurts, your doctor gets to tell you whether or not you have arthritis. these are just reports about different things and weighing one against the other is confused
yuuuuuup. I didn't want to accept this but it's hard to deny something broke in how people experience the economy.

That doesn't mean material conditions *don't matter*, but there's real attenuation of the connection between feelings and objective conditions and I don't know what to do about it

its crazy how the most deranged conspiracy theorists, largely through no virtue of their own, were basically right about the degree to which our ruling elite were either friendly with or actively a part of a pedophile ring

even if he didn't, the conspirators would clearly be so good at orchestrating and maintaining the cover-up that it would have been impossible to bring them to justice. and they'd all likely be dead by now. they won. what would be the point of further indulging in these conspiracy theories lol

i think its highly underappreciated the massive extent to which text-based platforms select for people who can consistently post in large volumes

short form video selects for conventionally attractive, microblogging selects for people who can post 50+ times per day
I agree that it’s 100% true that the eyeballs are all on short form video - and man, it’s still really depressing how the necessity of Doing Video nowadays seriously disadvantages people who aren’t conventionally attractive (or who just genuinely can’t stand being on camera)
The one thing I keep thinking about is how much direct to camera stuff rewards physical attractiveness. I mean, that's gotta be part of the reason these wellness influencers are successful, right? And you're competing for eyeballs with them.
